witbee Langstroth Deep Beehive Foundation Sheets 20-Pack — 100% Beeswax Coated, Reusable Plastic Core

These are 20 durable Langstroth deep-frame foundation sheets pre-coated with thick, 100% pure beeswax to encourage brood comb and honey storage.

Keep bee colonies productive and frames uniform with a value pack of 20 deep foundation sheets sized for Langstroth deeps (approximately 16.73 x 8.35 inches). Each sheet pairs a sturdy plastic base with a heavier layer of natural beeswax, making them easier for worker bees to accept and build upon. The plastic core resists bending and can be reused between seasons when properly cared for, while the wax surface provides a familiar texture and scent that helps guide comb construction.

How do these foundation sheets help my hive get established faster?

The beeswax coating supplies a tactile and olfactory guide that bees naturally follow, so they start drawing comb in the right places instead of relying on random burr comb. The prepared cell pattern also saves the colony time and energy compared with completely free-form building.

• 100% pure beeswax coating invites bees to begin building quickly
• Pre-formed cell pattern directs comb location for uniform frames
• Speeds brood rearing and honey storage by reducing comb construction effort

Will these fit my Langstroth deep frames and are they easy to install?

The sheets are cut to fit standard Langstroth deep frames (about 42.5 x 21.2 cm / 16.73 x 8.35 inches). Their rigid plastic substrate slides into grooved top bars without needing extra reinforcement, which makes frame preparation quick and consistent.

• Designed to match Langstroth deep-frame dimensions
• Plastic core resists deformation for easy insertion
• No wiring or additional support required for standard grooves

How long will the beeswax coating last and can sheets be reused?

The thicker layer of natural beeswax provides a lasting working surface that withstands initial building and handling. With careful removal and cleaning, the plastic foundations can be reused for multiple seasons; replacing the wax coating is possible if necessary.

• Thick natural wax layer endures initial comb drawing
• Plastic core reduces cracking and breakage during handling
• Reusable with proper cleaning and storage between seasons

What are the practical benefits of buying this 20-sheet pack?

Purchasing a 20-piece kit gives you enough foundation to prepare several frames for one hive or to top up multiple hives, saving time and money compared with buying sheets individually. It’s a convenient quantity for hobbyists and small-scale beekeepers who want consistent comb structure across frames.

• Value pack ensures an ample supply for a full deep brood box or multiple frames
• Uniform foundation across frames improves hive management
• Cost-effective option for hobby and small apiaries
